Hi,

Are Alexa routines supposed to work now? Mine are not triggering at all.

Depending on the device, Alexa sometimes replies "audio actions not supported" but yes, they generally work for me.
Yes this is my experience too, but the routines do work for lights and plugs etc. The response from Alexa though is a real nuisance and it used to work fine with no Alex response before, so the Alexa feedback message is relatively a new thing. Hope Amazon will choose to fix this soon.

I have 2 Sonos Beams and 2 Sonos Ones and I can't even set up a routine because it says no speakers available. I don't have any other Alexa devices.
Mine is also not working. I don't have an Alexa native speaker, only the Sonos One. i can't set up any routines involving voice commands because it says there are no speakers available. If it's working for some people, how did you fix it? I think I have all the latest firmware.
+1 - would like to have alexa respond via the sonos one when a switch rule or schedule is triggered.

Same for me. But I have no audio actions in my routines, just light switching

My Beam can trigger Routines but responds that it can’t. Frustrating

Weird cause mine do not work at all. I can't even see my Sonos One in the "Alexa will respond from" and Alexa keeps responding "hmm, I don't know that one"
Working fine here 🙂
